How to Improve the Domain Authority of Your Website

What is Domain Authority?

Domain authority, introduced by Moz, is commonly known as DA. It depends upon three factors mainly: age, popularity, and size.

The search engines want to show trustworthy websites in their search results. Since many new websites develop and many of them don’t last for longer, search engines sees domain age as an indicator of trust. Search engines value those websites in their search results which have consistently generated an increase in traffic.

Domain popularity is measured by the number of inbound links to the website from high authority websites.

Domain authority of your website depends upon the size of your website. If you have a one page website, the search engine would give little value to your website. But, if you have a ten pages website, the search engine would consider your website worth valuing.

The content of your website is the backbone of your online presence. As with weak backbone, you cannot expect to stand, the same way, with poor quality content, you cannot expect to have a strong presence in the world of online business. Therefore, keep original, well-informed, user friendly content on your website.
